The food and service are excellent. Very pricey. We were disappointed by the diners wearing shorts and flip flops.

Absolutely incredible experience! Our wait staff, Julian, Miguel and Santana were amazing. The food was 10/10, service was impeccable and we were treated so kindly from start to finish. It was for my mom’s birthday and they made her feel so special. Can’t wait to return next year!!

We have enjoyed Knife and Spoon on several occasions while visiting Orlando. The food is always well-prepared and tasty. The vegetarian selection is somewhat limited but adequate. The side of mushrooms is perhaps the best preparation I had ever tasted. The wine list is exceptional with some good buys. We are fans of a good Old Fashioned-this is a top notch cocktail. The service is overly attentive and bordered on intrusive leading my my lower score. The room is elegant. We dined early and the noise level was low.
